Today, we will discuss that Prophet Moses (PBUH) is not a mythological figure but indeed lived in history. We will explore the evidence supporting both Islam and the existence of Prophet Moses, focusing on the "Ipuwer Papyrus (Papyrus Leiden I 344 RECTO)" and other historical proofs.

**IPUWER PAPYRUS**

The Ipuwer Papyrus is an ancient Egyptian document written in hieratic script, dating back to the 19th Dynasty and currently housed in the National Museum of Antiquities in Leiden, Netherlands. It contains a significant text known as "Ipuwer's Admonitions," dating from approximately 1991-1803 BCE, during the 12th Dynasty.

It is said that the ancient Egyptians meticulously recorded details, even noting when the Pharaoh went to the toilet. This raises the question: "Why aren't there inscriptions about Prophet Moses?"

Firstly, not all inscriptions from ancient Egypt have survived due to factors like fires and wars. The Ipuwer Papyrus, which is one piece of evidence, was not found in a well-protected place. There is only one inscription, the aforementioned Papyrus. The Ipuwer Papyrus is considered a record of the miracles of Prophet Moses mentioned in the Quran. Let's take a look at what it contains:

- 344: 10: 3-6: The lower Egypt is destroyed. The entire palace is idle. Everything possessed: wheat and barley, geese, and fish.

- 6-3: Thus, the crop was destroyed everywhere.

- 2:10: The river is turned into blood.

- 2: 5-6: Disasters spread everywhere. Everywhere is covered in blood.

- 3: 2: Gold and lapis lazuli, silver and malachite, carnelian, and bronze... all on the necks of slaves.

As you can see, it provides evidence of the miracles of Prophet Moses (PBUH).

**Historical Evidence of Prophet Moses' Existence**

In Egyptian history, the only person adopted by the palace was Senemut. Prophet Moses is mentioned in the Quran as being adopted. To be precise, Hatsepsut, the wife of Thutmose II who found Prophet Moses, married Thutmose II after her father's death. When Prophet Moses returned from Midian, Pharaoh Thutmose III was on the throne. Hatsepsut did not completely pass the throne to Thutmose III because she wanted Prophet Moses to take over. Until Hatsepsut's death, the throne was shared between Thutmose III and Prophet Moses. When Hatsepsut died, Thutmose III removed her traces, possibly by erasing them, and fully took control.
